I recently bought a 97 f250 heavy duty. I moved into my garage to do work on it, started up fine and everything. Just before moving it into my garage I replaced the fuel filter. I parked it in the garage for about 6 hours then when i tried to start it the wait to start light never came on, and would not start. I unplugged the fuel heater and and replaced fuse #22 and #9. Still wont start. I've read the other threads on this but could figure it out. Did i do something wrong when replacing fuses? I put a meter on the GPR red/green wire, I don't get a lot of current. how much should i be getting? My battery light also came on a few days ago.

Check fuse #22 again and make sure that it was the fuel heater that was disconnected (many folks disconnect the fuel restriction sensor instead). Since your truck is a 97, do you know if it is a California model (look for the pulse dampener, aka the Starship Enterprise, on the back end of the fuel pump under the turbo pedestal). Cheers!

I checked the fuses they are all fine, I checked the old ones i took out o they were also fine. And I disconnected the fuel bowl heater by taking the fuel filter out and and the pedestal and unhooking it from there.

Before I moved the truck into the garage It was cold and i did have a rough start. I think that might of caused something.
My truck Does not have the pulse dampener under the turbo.
